I was one of those total weebs who watched initial D and was like "I want an AE-86 so bad" but the more and more I learn about cars, the more the FD is becoming my genuine dream car. The rotary is such a cool engine, despite its flaws. The car looks incredible, and with a whole rotary community out there still loving on and running the engine, you can easily learn enough to make it reliable as long as you take good care of it. I would love to own one some day.
@@SaltExarch Couldnt have said it any better its basically the same with me. Appreciate every japanese car they are built like Art especially the FD. Couldnt agree more!

Seriously, man. One time I saw two Honda NSX's driving tandem on the highway while I was passing through Vegas, and that certainly was one of the highlights of my whole trip. Something so simple, yet so satisfying to see.

This is still without a doubt the most beautiful car Mazda has ever designed and manufactured. It's always been on my sort of bucket list of nostalgic import cars to one day own. Thankfully there's not too many left on that list because I've been fortunate enough to own quite a few of them over the years, albeit most were temporary.
I love how their "humble" with their builds and power numbers unlike these overkill, ridiculous builds on RUclips Edit: Compared to the big turbo, supercharged builds of a k24 civic. Thorns might seem "shit" but reviews like hoonigan autofocus do it justice. You don't need high horsepower to have a nice build or a fast build. Most people that go in a 400hp car will be scared shitless yet you have people making 750+ hp builds look normal and the new standard, which is completely unrealistic and needed in the world outside of RUclips Edit: Weow so many likes in such little time-

This has always been a dream of mine to just make a cross country road trip in some nice car with a friend or alone. Idk but it feels like something that could be spiritually uplifting, getting to see and admire all of nature and this world's beauty
Right. Well, you would hate it where I live I have dumbasses who drive on the opposite side of the road to drive close as shit to my car. Then get mad at me when I beep or yell at them. I need ideas on what to do. I put cones out but people keep stealing them. My friend said put nails near my car lmfaoo. I can't even build my car due to this reason.

As a Honda boy and a rx7 owner and enthusiast myself, this is the best video ever. I almost lost it when they started showing all the cars at gridlife. Not to mention just how high quality of a production this is.

They inspired me to leave the south on a road trip to the New England area. It’s been so many years since I’ve done that. Glad to have found them when they just made shorter videos.

Loved the video. However I wish you would show more "In between", like you parking the cars for the night, maybe cleaning them, even some footage of you going into a restaurant for lunch, it would help make it look more like an adventure.

Early in the series Keisukes RX-7 had roughly 350 HP, and the yellow one here has 360. But keisukes is still cooler because of the wing and twin turbos
Yes especially on his swap, there's more room than if it was in a Honda chassis. The belts are all facing you and literally it's accessible within reach with nothing in the way. Very smart swap!
